Comment on Pro-AI Subreddit Bans 'Uptick' of Users Who Suffer from AI Delusions
SparroHawc@lemm.ee 3 weeks agoOh, I’m sure there are bots on Lemmy too. The general userbase, however - of people who are sick of Reddit’s BS - are also going to have very little tolerance for bot BS, so the instances are incentivized to try to keep bot activity down lest they be de-federated.

Plus they don’t see ad revenue, so there’s no profit incentive to keep bots around acting as if they’re real traffic. If anything, Lemmy instances are disincentivized from allowing bot traffic because it means more traffic than necessary, which costs them bandwidth.
